Vista goes on sale at Amazon

BOSTON - Internet retailer Amazon.com Inc. has started taking early orders for Microsoft Corp.'s Windows Vista operating system at prices ranging from $100 to $399.

Amazon is promising to ship the software on Jan. 30, according to its Web site.

Microsoft spokesman Lou Gellos declined to comment on the Web retailer's pre-sale, saying the software maker is still completing its pricing model for Windows Vista. The operating system will be sold in multiple versions targeted at consumers and businesses.

Amazon's pricing ranges from $100 for a basic upgrade version of Vista to $399 for a full "ultimate" version of the operating system, according to the retailer's Web site.
